* The Union, on the ropes in their war against the Kaylon, develop a weapon that can wipe out the entire population of the Kaylon homeworld and, with a little tweaking, wipe out all Kaylon in the galaxy. When presented with the opportunity to use it, they instead choose to sue for peace, using the weapon as leverage to force a ceasefire in hope that they can establish a legitimate treaty between both sides that would end hostilities without loss of any more life on either side.

* Isaac, having become much closer with the Finn family, goes with Claire to the parent-teacher meeting to defend Marcus against the claims of James' entitled parents. He then proceeds to prove with irrefutable evidence that James not only was the one who hacked the food synthesizer for the vodka, but that he's been changing his grades by hacking his mother's tablet. He then, in the most Isaac way possible, calls out James' parents for blaming another child for their son's actions. Claire is understandably ''very'' grateful.

* Near the end of the episode, Isaac gets a PersonalityChip installed, giving him emotions. Mark Jackson absolutely ''sells'' the sheer elation of someone experiencing the full range of organic emotions for the first time, especially his love for Claire and her sons. It makes it all the more heartbreaking when he loses said emotions only minutes later and reverts to standard-issue Isaac.
* Timmis, meanwhile, does what no one on the ''Orville'' could do: he gets through to Charly. After she angrily tells him that she's not about to forgive him for what he and the rest of the Kaylon did, he admits that he doesn't expect to be forgiven and tells her the whole sad story of why his people are the way they are. Anne Winters does a masterful job of portraying Charly's JerkassRealization throughout the scene, as her expression and body language slowly go from "Piss off, robot scum" to "My God, I'm no better than they are."
